PRODUCTION DATA.
The TPS92518-Q1 operates using a peak-current, constant off-time control as described in Figure 16. Two states dictate the high-side FET control. The switch turns on and stays on until the programmed peak current is reached. The peak current is controlled by monitoring the voltage across the sense resistor. When the voltage drop is higher than the programmed threshold, the peak current is reached. The switch is then turned OFF, which initiates an off-time period. An internal capacitor is then charged by a current source which varies in relation to the VLEDx pin voltage. When the capacitor voltage reaches the DAC controlled threshold, the off-time ends. The off-time capacitor resets and the main switch turns ON, starting the next ON cycle.
